Re: Flawless Casting

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, after I posted, I figured it would be someone older. Which, if I'd read the books first, might have been an issue for me. Book!Sam - perhaps it wasn't so much the character, but the class issues that seemed to be at play really irked me. He just came off as so obsequiously servile to me. I wanted to slap him to snap him out of it and tell Frodo to cook his own damn meals. :)

SA (hit post instead of return), so P.S. Movie!Sam did much of the same things as book!Sam, and yet somehow Sean Astin made it work for me, and it seemed more that he was doing it because he really cared for Frodo as a friend, and less because Frodo was his 'better' and therefore he should look out for him. It just seemed that there was just a servant/master vibe in the book version of their relationship that I didn't care for. Which may be entirely my own perception.

Anyway, Sean Astin rocks!

Ah, and see I found Frodo annoying in those scenes. Like, every character but Sam was upper class, and no one else treated him like that. Frodo is not one of my favorite characters.

You know, you're right, I should have been more annoyed at Frodo. But he just accepted that behaviour with oblivious ease. And as I identify more with the lower class, I just wanted to yell at Sam to have some pride and stop serving Frodo as if it were his only purpose in life.
